For entertainment...but the GGEM gives the Monadnocks probably around 2 feet of snow in early May on this run...of course most of the rest of the region also gets in on it, but the crush job for SW NH and S VT is epic this run, lol:

Lol....Euro has it too, though not nearly to the extent like the GGEM...but it's funny that the upper air is somewhat similar...but you need a pretty special system to get meaningful snow in May:

So that's the GGEM, GFS and Euro now showing a big wintry system for NNE on next Tuesday....interesting to say the least...

Is that how May 78 happened? Same type of setup?

 

 

Kind of similar...they both involved closed lows south of us, but May '77 actually took a steeper trajectory from the NW and it was a bit colder even than those progs. The closed low in '77 was more impressive than what those models show...so if we were actually serious about getting something historic, you'd want to see it trend that way.

 

Right now, it's just fodder.

Yeah seems like exact same kind of thing

The accumulation map from the historic May 1977 snowstorm.
Unknown

On the evening of May 8, 1977, a strong double-barrel low pressure system gathered strength across the mid-Atlantic region. One area of low pressure was centered just north of Lake Ontario and the second low pressure was located near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. As this secondary low pressure slid off the coast on May 9th, it developed into a strong coastal storm that would undergo rapid intensification just south of Cape Cod.

The storm was able to bring an air mass of unseasonably cold air from Canada southward into upstate New York and New England changing rain over to a heavy and wet snow, as just the right ingredients in the atmosphere came together for a significant winter-like event.

The storm dropped historic amounts of snow across the region, including more than a foot of snow just west of New Paltz, NY and up to 2

Kev calling for 70s this weekend, the Met community?

Either side of 70 inland areas yes. As nice as this past weekend but warmer

 

dry air and 850 mb T's hovering around +1 to +3 SW to -1 C NE across the region. at this time of year and the power of ole sol notwithstanding, that's super-adiabatic flip-overs of BL clear to 70 or even 72 i

:lol:

 

Good luck with that.

depends... jesus you guys.  you say you don't wish on crap weather because it situates your psyche closer to your neurotic obsession with snow (in some petty moral victory), then I read the last 100 post based on a solitary run time and you make that very difficult to believe.

 

first of all, if the 00z GGEM and Euro operational depictions panned out, my analysis for the weekend - which Kevin quoted above - is entirely valid would likely verify given that synoptic layout. 

 

the fact that the 12z runs may have changed the landscape - fine.  let's go with THAT solution automatically then - okay. 

 

this will fall on unavailable minds but the GEFs teleconnectors from the nightly derivatives don't support the 12 z slosh back to absurdity..

"Super adiabatic flip-overs"...did that come to you in your sleep or something?

You get these guys that try and hold onto cold and chill all year. Just can't face that we are in warm season. Last weekend got into the mid 60's under a far worse setup. 70 is very possible one or both days in favored locales
